Sober October check-in!

Day 1 is ending. How did it feel for you? Be honest.

Before I quit for good in 2021, I tried every year to make it through October without drinking and I never made it the full way. When I finally stopped in November, it was rough. I was in such a blackout streak I did not even realize it was Thanksgiving week.

So if your brain is already saying Wednesday feels like a blah start, or telling you to just wait for Dry January, that is normal. But it is only one day, and you already made it this far.
Share your honest recap of Day 1 here. I promise you are not alone.

Here is something someone told me early on that still helps me today:

You can be as free as you want to be.

If you do not believe me, try it for yourself. Comment below with how your day went and notice how much lighter it feels when someone else says they felt the exact same way. No sugar coating needed. Just be as honest as you want to be.

Since Rachel’s last drink was on November 21, 2021, we can consider that day as right. However, we consider our sobriety date to be November 22, 2021, because that was the night we took our desire chips and haven’t had a drink since. Is your sobriety date the day of your last drink, or is it the first day of sobriety? Both ways are right, it’s just what felt right to you!

📣 S**t You Do Sober Story: Meet Rachel Casey!

"I share the same sobriety date as my husband. It wasn’t something we planned; it just happened. We also didn’t approach recovery in the same way, which shows me that there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to sobriety. The common thread we had was that alcohol was destroying our lives, and there was no way we could drink like normal people. Accepting that we had a serious alcohol problem transformed our lives and the lives of our now five-year-old son, Evan. I’m grateful to be a sober wife to a sober husband and alcohol-free parents to our son. I know that if alcohol were still in my life, I wouldn’t have these incredible people in my life, and that’s something I’m incredibly thankful for every day."

Rachel and her husband host the SoberBanter podcast, where I was a recent guest. She has an incredible story; their podcast is candid and entertaining. Be sure to check it out! Thanks for sharing some of the s**t you do sober with us!
